Doctoral Dissertations. 580. https://opencommons.uconn.edu/dissertations/580 ABSTRACT The Rise of the Tenor Voice in the Late Eighteenth Century: Mozart’s Opera and Concert Arias Joshua Michael May University of Connecticut, 2014 W. A. Mozart’s opera and concert arias for tenor are among the first music written specifically for this voice type as it is understood today, and they form an essential pillar of the pedagogy and repertoire for the modern tenor voice. Yet while the opera arias have received a great deal of attention from scholars of the vocal literature, the concert arias have been comparatively overlooked; they are neglected also in relation to their counterparts for soprano, about which a great deal has been written. There has been some pedagogical discussion of the tenor concert arias in relation to the correction of vocal faults, but otherwise they have received little scrutiny. This is surprising, not least because in most cases Mozart’s concert arias were composed for singers with whom he also worked in the opera house, and Mozart always paid close attention to the particular capabilities of the musicians for whom he wrote: these arias offer us unusually intimate insights into how a first-rank composer explored and shaped the potential of the newly-emerging voice type of the modern tenor voice.

  • Kenneth E. Querns Langley Doctor of Philosophy
    Reconstructing the Tenor ‘Pharyngeal Voice’: a Historical and Practical Investigation Kenneth E. Querns Langley Submitted in partial fulfilment of Doctor of Philosophy in Music 31 October 2019 Page | ii Abstract One of the defining moments of operatic history occurred in April 1837 when upon returning to Paris from study in Italy, Gilbert Duprez (1806–1896) performed the first ‘do di petto’, or high c′′ ‘from the chest’, in Rossini’s Guillaume Tell. However, according to the great pedagogue Manuel Garcia (jr.) (1805–1906) tenors like Giovanni Battista Rubini (1794–1854) and Garcia’s own father, tenor Manuel Garcia (sr.) (1775–1832), had been singing the ‘do di petto’ for some time. A great deal of research has already been done to quantify this great ‘moment’, but I wanted to see if it is possible to define the vocal qualities of the tenor voices other than Duprez’, and to see if perhaps there is a general misunderstanding of their vocal qualities. That investigation led me to the ‘pharyngeal voice’ concept, what the Italians call falsettone. I then wondered if I could not only discover the techniques which allowed them to have such wide ranges, fioritura, pianissimi, superb legato, and what seemed like a ‘do di petto’, but also to reconstruct what amounts to a ‘lost technique’. To accomplish this, I bring my lifelong training as a bel canto tenor and eighteen years of experience as a classical singing teacher to bear in a partially autoethnographic study in which I analyse the most important vocal treatises from Pier Francesco Tosi’s (c.

  • DOI: 16 Maria Grazia Sità
    Maria Grazia Sità Improvisation and the Rhetoric of Beginning 1.1 Improvisation as an “end” of study Theorists and authors of treatises have long agreed that improvisation is a complex and difficult art and that a good improviser can become so only at the end of his study. Since the improviser is obviously a performer, treatises often maintain that performers must first of all attain a total mastery of their instrument and only then will they be able to improvise. Moreover, other sources insist that an improviser must be thoroughly versed in the rules of harmony and counterpoint before he can improvise. Below I shall quote just a few extracts dealing with this issue taken from dictionaries and treatises from the early 19th century, but many other ex- amples could be mentioned. These quotations refer to improvisation that is already fully developed both technically and musically. “C’est composer&jouer impromptu des Pièces chargées de tout ce que la Composition a de plus savant en Dessein, en Fugue, en Imitation, en Modulation&en Harmonie. […] C’est là [en préludant] qu’il ne suffit pas d’être bon Compositeur, ni de bien posséder son Clavier, ni d’avoir la main bonne &bien exercée, mais qu’il faut encore abonder de ce feu de génie&de cet esprit inventif qui font trouver&traiter sur le champ les sujets les plus favorables à l’Harmonie&les plus flatteurs à l’oreille.” (Jean-Jacques Rousseau: Art. “Préluder”, in: Dictionnaire de Musique,Paris1768,p.389) “[Improvised fantasy is] de[r] höchste[.] Grad der Komposition […], wo Meditation und Exekution unmittelbar mit einander verbunden ist.” (Johann Samuel Petri: Anleitung zur praktischen Musik, Leipzig 21782, pp.266f.) “Per improvvisare però con successo nella musica, bisogna essere iniziato a fondo nell’arte, e partico- larmente in tutte le specie del Contrappunto, essere padrone assoluto dello strumento su cui si improvvisa”.

Herter Norton first published lectures delivered at the People’s Institute, the adult education division of New York City’s Cooper Union. The firm soon expanded its program beyond the Institute, publishing books by celebrated academics from America and abroad. By midcentury, the two major pillars of Norton’s publishing program— trade books and college texts—were firmly established. In the 1950s, the Norton family transferred control of the company to its employees, and today—with a staff of four hundred and a comparable number of trade, college, and professional titles published each year—W.

This collection of material has been designed to help any educator to teach students about the beauty of opera. This collection of material includes audio and video recordings, scores, reference books and a Teacher’s Guide. The Teacher’s Guide includes Lesson Plans that have been designed around the materials found in the box and other easily obtained items. In addition, Lesson Plans have been aligned with State and National Standards. See the Unit Overview for a detailed explanation.
